• Swansea value midfielder at £50m and deal should be struck before next week • Sigurdsson not travelling with Swansea for their pre-season tour of US

Swansea City have rejected a £40m bid from Everton for Gylfi Sigurdsson. They value the midfielder at £50m and further negotiations are expected that will likely end in the player moving to Goodison Park before next week.

Sigurdsson has not travelled with the Swansea squad for a pre-season tour of the US. The club said on their Twitter feed: “Gylfi did not feel in the right frame of mind to travel due to the current uncertainty over his future”.
